Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions Wireshark versions 1.12.x through 1.12.4

Description The issue allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service, specifically an infinite loop, by sending a crafted packet. This is due to the dissect lbmr pser function in the LBMR dissector not properly handling a zero length.

Recommendations For Wireshark versions 1.12.x through 1.12.4, update to version 1.12.5 or later to resolve the issue. As a temporary workaround, consider restricting the use of the LBMR dissector until a patch is available.
